Blue Screen: Driver_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Just bought the laptop for less than 3 weeks, the following are its specs:
Attachment 256356Attachment 256357

It has been giving me blue screens, making me afraid to do homework on it.

I used winDbg to analyze the mini dump file:

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high. This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If kernel debugger is available get stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: 000000000150076b, memory referenced
Arg2: 0000000000000002, IRQL
Arg3: 0000000000000000, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
Arg4: fffff88009316ef9, address which referenced memory

Your help is very much appreciated!

Hi blue and welcome to SevenForums . Looking at your log it points to Netwsw00.sys . That point to your Intel Wifi card driver . Update that driver either from intel or your laptop's manufacture .

Blue screen … the image you're showing just states that the wireless device is working . They blue screen is caused of that .sys file . To fix that you install the driver software . Here is the download link from intel http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...20Applications

For a precaution lets test your RAM as well . Just cause you bought the laptop recently doesn't mean your RAM can't go bad . RAM - Test with Memtest86+

Added : Are you running Symantec norton antivirus or Norton Internet Security on that laptop ? You might want to remove that and install MSE or purchase a much better Anti-virus software than Symantec .

Yes download File name: Wireless_15.6_Ds64.exe . It only has the driver . You don't need the Intel Wifi software .

Uninstall old drivers first

Click on > Control Panel > System and Maintenance > System
Click the + Network adapters to expand the section.
Right-click the Intel Wi-Fi adapter and select Uninstall.
Check Delete the driver software for this device and click OK.
Restart PC and reinstall driver once you get to the desktop .
